Honorary gifts

Honorary gifts are a great way pay tribute to those you love. Your donation will ensure that children won’t go to bed hungry and seniors won’t have to choose between food and medication.

You can make a gift that gives back in the name of a loved one. Honorary gifts celebrate birthdays, anniversaries, or the memory of loved ones. Please contact Chief Development Officer, Gloria Crockett at [email protected] or call 949-653-2900 x149 to find out more.

IRA Rollover

On December 18, 2015, the IRA Charitable Rollover was passed by Congress and signed by the President, making it a permanent law.

The bill, known as the PATH Act, is retroactive to December 31, 2014. It allows taxpayers age 70 1/2 or older to donate up to $100,000 directly from their Individual Retirement Account to a charity without treating the distribution as taxable income.

Rollover gifts transferred directly to Second Harvest will qualify and may be used to meet a donor’s required IRA minimum distribution. Please contact our Development Department at [email protected]
